James Corden Wows Audiences As New Host of 'The Late Late Show,' According to Twitter

James Corden, fresh off a starring role in last year’s “Into The Woods,” made his “The Late Late Show” premiere last night and Twitter loved it — according to an Oxford University analysis,based on 41,000 tweets. The University used software it developed called TheySay, which analyzed tens of thousands of tweets per second to reveal that American audiences were extremely pleased with the new host’s debut. According to a release from TheySay, the software is so accurate and advanced it can even detect sarcasm and humor.

The analysis revealed an 88 percent positive response to Corden, with 95 percent of sentiments being comprised of happy emotions. “There was an overwhelmingly positive reaction in social media following Corden’s first show,” said Dr. Karo Moilanen, co-founder of TheySay, in a release. “He proved his doubters wrong, offered something fresh and broke the mold in 21st century late night TV.”

Last night’s show featured Tom Hanks and Mila Kunis. Analysis before and after the show from TheySay was largely different, with the pre-analysis suggesting a rough debut based on poor dress rehearsals and and skeptical tweets, even from fellow Brits.
